Shrewsbury face a trip to Exeter City at St James Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Shrews will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in March 2001, the Grecians carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League Division Three match.
